ABOUT THE HEART RATE DETECTION AND PRESENTATION
It is an optional function, if you are equipped with such function, please note with the
following.
About Contact Heart Rate
It is easy to use the contact heart rate mechanism. Simply put both hands on the silver
contact plates (one per side) and hold them there continuously. As soon as your pulse
is received and calculated, the heart rate will automatically appear on the display.
Please note that some people have very weak heart beats. This makes heart rate
detection difficult. Under such circumstances, the contact heart rate mechanism may
not detect heart rate.
Please note the following:
1. For best results, continuously hold the contact heart rate plates.
2. It is difficult to detect the heart rate of people with low systolic blood pressure.
3. It is difficult to detect the heart rate of people with dry, course palms. Keeping palms
smooth and damp improves heart rate detection.
Suggestions:
For better heart rate detection, place both hands firmly on contact sensors.
Note: Avoid Static Electricity
In cold, dry areas, static electricity can interfere with unit operation. In such
environments, touching metal may cause static electrical shocks.
Suggestions:
Before touching metal, touch a material with electrically isolative properties, for
instance, plastic or foam, to avoid shocks from static electricity.
Because heart rate contact plates are made of metal, to avoid static shock, first touch
foam grips, then touch heart rate contact plates.
